Principal's Message
Welcome to our school. I am proud to lead our community. Our motto – Faith, Diversity, Learning entwines three threads which shape our vibrant community and the people within it.
Our school is driven by evidenced based practices, where we deliver a knowledge rich, evidence based teaching and learning curriculum so that every student achieves literacy and numeracy proficiency.
As a Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic School we provide a high quality education for our local community.
Through our doors you will find a welcoming and inclusive environment where students, staff, parents, the parish and wider community are all active partners in the learning journey.
Let us follow in St Martin’s way by humbly doing the will of God in all things.
Stefanie Harvey – Principal
